Abstract
Techniques involve receiving a write request for writing metadata of a file system into a solid state disk having a multi-level cell, and then caching the to-be-written metadata into a memory. The techniques further involve sequentially writing the cached metadata into the solid state disk by redirect-on-write. Accordingly, there is a file system implemented for properties of a solid state disk having a multi-level cell. Such techniques are able to provide completely sequential write of metadata of the file system by supporting redirect-on-write, thereby reducing the write amplification of the solid state disk and improving the performance of the file system.
